Latest for a while;
So had the base coat, coat of lacquer clear that's why it looks shiny or bits of yellow are showing they do on the carrier as I did not paint them because it will be hidden by the side skirts and earth effects on the side of the inner hull.
Close up of the breech end just have to put a little bit of oily type stains on the recuperators and glue in the 1/35 88mm Tiger II shell case plus I'll do like the Panther and have it being resupplied with ammo as you get a few in a packet 2 piece fiddly to paint.
Now for the tracks and running gear it'll be back in a while!
Forgot to say before it gets the cammo it has to have a layer of moderate hold hairspray so you can chip the colours off with water moistened Q tips but the base is protected by the lacquer finish as 90% of my paints are acrylic.
